Hello Richard, spoke to you on Friday out Varitech, like your set up, looks smart. I've installed everything myself in the back of my transporter as I've changed my van enough times to do a complete refit in a day now so not short of practice.
Spent Saturday installing an ionics 600 tank, DI vessels, two pumps, two flow controllers, hose-reel, pole holders, two battery trays and batteries, insulated tank completely and inside of van ready for winter. Just got to install four 40watt solar panels, a regulator, an inverter and then I'm off the grid permanently for recharging main battery and secondary battery throughout the winter as they will remain permanently trickle charged and also connected to a smart split charger running off the van battery.
I have a 650 litre stainless steel frame and tank as well as filters, filter housings and possibly a 4040 R/O set up which I've taken out for sale if anyone is interested. Text sensible offers to: Wayne 07511 700754 (location 5mins from Varitech in Newton Abbot)

Even though my van was at varitech on Friday, I was at burrator reservoir enjoying the sun and trying to relax while my van was away to be fixed.  The guy you spoke with was probably Mark , the linex installer from a and m coatings.

Its nice to hear feedback on my van, thanks. Did you like the sign writing? Proper eye catching. I see similar popping up all over the place, probably starting a trend.

My primastars been off the road since last friday....needs 4 new injectors the local garage got 2 out butother 2 are seized :(



was it you mate who bought the primastar a few months ago with 114,000 miles on the clock?bad luck that pal.is it gonna cost over a grand to fix plus a weeks money lost? ::)roll
Yeah had it 4 months now Daz...been brilliant up till now was driving home last Friday and engine cut out and that was that I know its gonna be expensive but hey thats life sometimes :(

On the balance of probabilities, what do you reckon is the chances of all four of your injectors failing at the same time ?
It's only one injector failed but my garage recommended all 4 to be changed which makes sense as the other 3 won't be far behind failing which will mean more time off the road and more labour costs.

I've got a traffic and had the same problem. Renault wanted £1500 +VAT off me for changing all 4 injectors as they said one had gone and all 4 needed doing. When I questioned them they couldn't guarantee 100% it was the injectors. I went and got it back as I didn't trust them and it turned out to be a valve which goes into the end of the common fuel rail - apparently its a very common fault. They say you need to buy a whole new rail which is approx £400 +VAT. Anyway I did some hunting and found the valve for £100 and it cost me about £50 to get it fitted. I got it from http://www.tved.co.uk

Hope this helps

Tom
